I know I am not the only person talking about this topic and I really want to get my two cents in, so here it goes. Triple H is expected to be the new TV authority figure of the WWE, so we all suspect/believe at least. So with John 'Johnny Ace' Laurinaitis appearing on screen twice now and having an article and apology written about him as 'McMahon's stooge', one has to think where this will go for

(touch up)
So this Wrestlemania so far is going to be promising but these are just a few ideas I have to make it even better.
1. Rock and Cena(Heel)- Street Fight. At end they shake hands like Hulk and Rock did.
2. Triple H vs Undertaker- Hell in a Cell. Yes I said it. Retirement Match. HHH loses and Undertaker Retires anyways because he had a great run. He also then goes into
There are a variety of things that can really improve the product we are currently watching.
1. Go after some more athletic Divas. What happened to the Days of finding women like Lita and Chyna and Trish Status? Where did we find these women. Watching scandalous women can be really boring. This is why they brought in Kharma from TNA but what happened? She got preggo.
Hey guys hope all is well. I'm blogging about my thoughts on Alex Riley. Everything about this guy is awesome to watch. I think he's amazing and he's ready for stardom. Now I'm not saying make him World Champ tomorrow, but I still feel he's ready.
I think within two years he should be World Champ.
Truth about the upper midcard in the WWE:
For every top star
Recently the WWE has been doing things right. And you know what? Its about damn time! For to long we all had to sit threw boring main events on Raw and the PPV's..." Oh look, Cena won again with his same 5 moves what a surprise! "
I know people will say..."well if you don't like it don't watch it" but I can't help myself. I have to watch, my whole life has revolved

Its official Sheamus and Justin Gabriel have turned face
Sheamus turned face on the 19th July tapings of Smackdown by attacking Wade Barrett
Justin Gabriel turned face after being accused of 'dropping the ball' by Heath Slater
so I wondered what WWE has in store for both of them and this is how I would put it
Justin Gabriel - A feud with
First blog post!
Wade Barret is a great wrestler and will obviously win the title one day, but you cant expect for the WWE to put a strap on somebody so soon. Every legend in recent memory worked mid card for YEARS before they got their first shot.
*These numbers are not accurate but very close estimates
The Rock: Almost two to three years before winning
Hi guys, 1st time blog here...
Thought I'd jump in at the deep end and chat not about what the WWE is doing wrong (there's far too much competition here for that) but rather the things I feel the WWE have gotten right recently.
Now just to let everyone know, I've transitioned (with the odd break here or there) from Hogan, Taker, Savage to Hart, Michaels,
Updated 07-20-2011 at 09:52 AM by Frank
So now that Mr. Bryan is the new Mr. Money in the bank, we are all wondering how they are going to book him. Will the WWE just give him a short title run until Orton gets the title back, will Daniel Bryan be the first person to lose his match for the title or will he lose the briefcase before then? This is not what will happen but just what I would do in making Daniel Bryan the number 2 face of Smackdown
in 2004, Evolution ruled the world, and that meant their leader ruled the World. An epic rivalry with Shawn Michaels not only restarted but reached brand new heights. If Triple H's series of main event matches in 2003 was boring to some, 2004 was exhilarating. His feud with Michaels was officially back on at the 2004 Royal Rumble in a very memorable last man standing

Hey all,
I am in the process of adding a seperate shower into our masterbath. Currently we have 1/2" copper supply lines feeding a single vanity, a tub/shower combo, and the toilet. I was planning to T off the existing 1/2" copper lines and running new lines to the shower. The tub/shower combo will now be a stand alone soaker tub. The new shower will be on the other side of the room approximately 8 ft from the existing lines.
Based on what I'm planning will I run into water pressure problems? Right now I believe we have water pressure of around 4-5 gpm. If it would help at all I could run 3/4" lines to the new shower or even redo all the bathroom lines to 3/4". Problem is I could only change the lines in the bathroom and not all the way to the heater.
Thanks for the help!

The next year he moved to Madison, where he kept a store, ran a brickyard, speculated in lands and an ice and coal company, and served as director and later president of the Watertown-Madison R.R. Company. He held a receivership in the Milwaukee-Horicon R.R., and joined with others in operating a cranberry company and sawmill in northern Wisconsin.

Double Agent - I Serrated
Manufacture ID: 39FKS
Cold Steel's Double Agent neck knives possess a significant set of advantages worth noting. Designed by Zach Whitson with a Karambit Point blade style they're thin flat and super light (a little over 3 ounces including sheath). This makes them easy to conceal and very comfortable to wear. Their most audacious and notable feature however is their double ring handle design. Slip an index finger through the front ring nearest the blade and your pinky finger through the rear ring and close your fist to obtain a forward grip and vice versa for a reverse grip.
It doesn't matter how hard you cut chop hack hammer or thrust with the Double Agent. Its twin rings will always prevent your hand from sliding forward on the razor sharp edge and will likewise resist the effects of centrifugal force or the efforts of an adversary to wrest the Double Agent from your grasp.
- Blade: 3"
- Overall: 7 7/8"

- Weight: 2.5 oz.

FAA Grounds 41 Cessna Airplanes
The FAA was notified that the recently produced single-engine aircraft may have inadequate or incorrect flight control riggings.
The Federal Aviation Association has grounded 41 Cessna 172 and 182 airplanes until their flight control systems can be inspected.
The FAA was notified that the recently produced single-engine aircraft may have inadequate or incorrect flight control riggings, according to the FAA's emergency airworthiness directive issued Saturday.
The directive was sent to the owners and operators of the 41 aircraft, the FAA said.
Nine issues were identified through Cessna's inspection of 172 and 182 aircraft still at its Independence single-engine production plant, the FAA said in its directive.
The problems also could exist on planes produced and delivered within a certain time period. It did not specify the time period.
"We are issuing this AD to prevent loss of airplane control due to incorrect or inadequate rigging of critical flight systems," the directive said.
The planes should not be operated until the flight control systems are inspected and any problems corrected, the FAA said.
Cessna will pay for the inspections, said Karen Gordon, a spokeswoman for Textron Inc., Cessna's parent company.
Production of 172 and 182 aircraft is continuing, Gordon said.
"The FAA has certainly not shut down the line."

Tropical Maintains its Commitment to Innovation with the Launching of its New Beer with Natural Lemon
14 May 2013
With this initiative, the brand of Compañía Cervecera puts emphasis on adaptation to the consumers' demands
- Its natural and refreshing properties and its low alcohol content reinforce the image of a modality with a growing demand
- The drink has started being commercialised in supermarkets, restaurants, bars and coffee shops all over the islands
Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, May 13th, 2103.- Tropical just launched a new kind of beer with added natural lemon. With this initiative, the brand of Compañía Cervecera de Canarias wants to keep showing its commitment to innovation, together with the search for products that cover the expectations and the demands of the population.
From Compañía Cervecera, it's highlighted that with this new modality of Tropical Limón, known as radler, the emphasis is put on the opening of new markets and the search for opportunities in a time of big economical problems, with the goal of moving forward in the diversification and in the development of new segments.
Tropical Limón has started its commercialisation, in bottles as well as in cans, in supermarkets, restaurants, bars and coffee shops all over the islands, having in mind that is the first time that this kind of drink is produced in the insular market.
Compañía Cervecera emphasises the high potential for acceptance of this new drink, supported by previous market surveys, as it is a low alcohol content product, merely 2%, and its characteristics and flavour adapt to the necessities and taste of beer consumers as well as soft-drink consumers.
In fact, the latest studies existing in this field show that around 12% of the population consumes these type of drinks and its demand evidences a clear rising trend, as it's a refreshing drink made with natural ingredients, without flavour enhancers.
The new Tropical Limón wants to consolidate its presence especially among the consumers that choose this drink for lunch or with appetisers, in response to an increasing public demand for a refreshing drink with a low alcohol content and whose consumption increases even more during the summer season.
About Compañía Cervecera de Canarias
Compañía Cervecera is one of the main national breweries and one of the main engines in the economical and social development in Canarias: it boosts the creation of 7,000 jobs; it is shareholder of several companies in Canarias; and it gives priority to local supplies in order to carry out their production. The company, which is part of the international group SABMiller, has more than 300 business owners from Canarias among its shareholders, which are approximately 30% of the total and are represented with two members in the Board of Directors.

Speaker Boehner: House Has Passed Bills to Avert Entire Fiscal Cliff; Now President Obama & His Senate Must Take Action
Posted by Brittany Bramell on December 21, 2012
At a press conference today with Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA), House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) underscored the need for President Obama and his Democratic-controlled Senate to take action to avert the massive tax hikes and replace the defense sequester scheduled to take effect in just 10 days. As Speaker Boehner noted, the House has already passed legislation to avert the entire fiscal cliff, and it is now up to the Democrats who run Washington to get serious about the spending cuts and entitlement reforms needed to address our debt and resolve the fiscal cliff. Following are Speaker Boehner's remarks:
"As you know, the House did not take up the tax bill last night because we didn't have the votes to pass it. It's not the outcome that I wanted, but that was the will of the House.
"So, unless the President and Congress take action, tax rates will go up on every American taxpayer and devastating defense cuts will go into effect in ten days.
"The House has already passed bills addressing the fiscal cliff. We passed a bill replacing the president's sequester with responsible spending cuts and did it last May. We passed a bill to stop all the tax hikes on the American people scheduled to take effect January 1, and we did that on August 1. And we've proposed plans over and over again that Democrats used to support, but now they won't.
"I don't want taxes to go up. Republicans don't want taxes to go up. But we only run the House, the Democrats continue to run Washington.
"What the president has proposed so far simply won't do anything to solve our spending problem. He wants more spending and more tax hikes that will hurt our economy. And he simply won't deal honestly with entitlement reform and the big issues that are facing our country.
"We need significant spending cuts and real tax reform to address our long-term debt problem and pave the way for long-term growth and real growth in jobs in our country.
"We'll continue to work with our colleagues in the House and the Senate on a plan that protects families and small businesses from the fiscal cliff."
#SpendingIsTheProblem: Chasing Higher Spending With Higher Taxes Won't Solve Our Debt
Posted by Press Office on December 13, 2012
In the debate over avoiding the "fiscal cliff," an important point has been forgotten: when it comes to solving our debt, government spending is the problem that must be addressed.
Republicans have offered a balanced, pro-growth solution that would avert the fiscal cliff by making needed spending cuts and reforming our tax code in ways the president previously supported. This kind of plan – backed by a majority of the American people in survey after survey – would help address our debt and pave the way for long-term job growth.
President Obama and Democrats, on the other hand, want to punish small businesses with higher tax rates while increasing spending. The president has demanded as much as four times in tax hikes versus spending cuts, which are dwarfed by new 'stimulus.' This isn't balanced. And it won't do any good.
The chart above – prepared by Chairman Paul Ryan (R-WI) and the House Budget Committee – shows what happens to projected levels of tax revenue (green) if President Obama's tax increases kick in (blue), and compares that with recent and projected spending trajectory (red). As you can see, if the president gets his tax hikes, we still face a mountain of spending-driven debt.
Even Democrats like Erskine Bowles admit, "We have to cut spending." As said on CBS Face the Nation, "Even if you raise the top rates back to the Clinton rates, that only creates about $400 billion over 10 years. That's $40 billion a year. We have a trillion dollar a year deficit."
Spending is the problem. Republicans want to make needed spending cuts; Democrats are silent. And that's why there's still no agreement on averting the fiscal cliff.
Speaker Boehner Honors 2012 State Champion Moeller High School Football Crusaders
Posted by Press Office on December 13, 2012
House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) today placed a statement in the Congressional Record for the 112th Congress honoring Cincinnati's Archbishop Moeller High School for winning its eighth Ohio state football championship. The Moeller Crusaders clinched the state Division I high school football title on December 1, 2012 with a 20-12 win over Toledo Whitmer High School. The triumph extends a tradition of winning Moeller football that began decades ago under Boehner's friend, mentor, and coach, Gerry Faust.
Speaker Boehner and all of his brothers grew up in nearby Reading, Ohio and attended Moeller. The Speaker is a member of the school's Class of 1968. Many students from Boehner's congressional district attend the school today.
Here is the full text of the statement that Speaker Boehner asked to be inserted into the Congressional Record commemorating Moeller High School's championship:
"[A]s a proud graduate of Archbishop Moeller High School in Cincinnati, I rise today to congratulate and recognize the Crusaders on their recent Ohio State Football Championship.
"It is my pleasure to report that on December 1, 2012, the Crusaders won the OHSAA Division I state football championship, defeating Toledo Whitmer High School 20-12. This is Moeller High School's eighth Ohio football championship in the school's storied history.
"Under the guidance of Coach John Rodenberg, the 2012 Crusader football team ended its season with a record of 12-3.
"As a Crusader from the class of 1968, I congratulate Coach Rodenberg, Athletic Director Barry Borman, Principal Blane Collison, President Bill Hunt, and all the faculty, students, and alumni of the Moeller Family on this tremendous achievement. This victory honors the entire school community and extends the winning tradition of Moeller Football that began decades ago under my friend, coach, and mentor, Gerry Faust.
"Moeller High School has provided a center of learning in the finest Marianist tradition for generations of young men from my congressional district and the Greater Cincinnati area. A Catholic school, Moeller has established a reputation for excellence in academics, athletics, faith, and community service, a reputation that is renewed and reinforced by this latest achievement.
"On behalf of the United States House of Representatives, I proudly salute Coach Rodenberg, the 2012 Crusader football team, the Men of Moeller and the entire Moeller Family for this memorable victory."

Posted by Press Office on December 07, 2012
November saw a new rush of activity in the Capitol, with Speaker Boehner appearing in the Rayburn Room the day after the election to call for bipartisan action to avert the fiscal cliff. Those efforts continued throughout the month, as Boehner joined GOP leaders for a meeting with the "Fix the Debt" coalition and delivered the Weekly Republican Address.
Boehner also welcomed a group of World War II Honor Flight veterans to the Rotunda; celebrated the 237th birthday of the Marine Corps; honored Dr. James H. Billington for 25 years of service as Librarian of Congress; and accepted a portrait of outgoing Science, Space, Technology Committee chairman Ralph Hall (R-TX) into the House collection.

President's Plan "Will Hurt Nearly a Million Small Businesses"
Posted by Press Office on December 05, 2012
Speaker Boehner and House Republican leaders just finished up a meeting with small business owners who will get hit if President Obama raises tax rates instead of cutting spending. A former small business owner, Boehner kicked off the discussion by outlining the consequences of the president's tax rate hikes, and Republicans' responsible efforts to protect jobs:
"These small business owners that are with us today are here to highlight President Obama's plan to raise tax rates instead of cutting spending. His plan will hurt nearly a million small businesses around our country, that will affect hundreds of thousands of jobs. Now this week, we made a reasonable offer to the White House that would avert the fiscal cliff… It's up to the president to engage in this process, talk to us about where he'd like to go next."
The Hill has previously noted that "Republicans hope to contrast their meeting with small business owners to Obama's recent talks with CEO's from large corporations." Indeed, as Speaker Boehner said on Friday, "Small business owners are regular men and women from all backgrounds, who in today's economy are facing challenges on a daily basis." The House Small Business Committee has collected some of those everyday stories, which go into detail about the hurdles the president's tax rate hikes presents.
Small businesses are protected from tax rate hikes in the reasonable and responsible offer Republicans have made to avert the fiscal cliff, calling instead for cutting spending and fixing our tax code – an approach supported by most Americans, and the president himself in 2011.
Speaker Boehner Says White House Fiscal Cliff Offer is "Nonsense," Calls for Spending Cuts & Tax Reform
Posted by Press Office on December 02, 2012
On Fox News Sunday, Speaker John Boehner said Republicans have offered a balanced approach to averting the fiscal cliff but the president is "not being serious about coming to an agreement." Boehner says the White House is holding tax increases over the heads of the middle class while demanding more spending and tax rate hikes that will hurt small businesses. Here are some of the highlights:
Boehner: President Obama' s Fiscal Cliff Offer is "Nonsense," a "Non-Serious Proposal":
"A non-serious proposal. The president was asking for $1.6 trillion worth of, uh, new revenue over 10 years, twice as much as he's been asking for in public. He has stimulus spending in here that exceeded the amount of new cuts that he was willing to consider. It was not a serious offer. ... I looked at [Secretary Geithner] and I said, 'you can't be serious?' ... You know, we've got several weeks between Election Day and the end of the year. And, uh -- and three of those way -- weeks have been wasted, uh, with the -- with this nonsense."
Boehner: President Obama Asked for More New Spending Than Spending Cuts:
"We've put a serious offer on the table by putting revenues up there to try to get this question resolved. But the White House has responded with virtually nothing. They have actually asked for more revenue than they've been -- been asking for the whole entire time. ... And all of this new stimulus spending would literally be more than the spending cuts that he was willing to put on the table. ... Look at the fact that they put $400 billion worth of unspecified cuts up that they'd be willing to talk about, but yet, at the same time, that's over $400 billion over 10 years. Uh, while he wants over $400 billion in new stimulus spending. And this is -- this is -- it's a non-serious proposal."
Boehner: What Will President Obama Do With $1.6 Trillion? Spend It!
"I mean think about the -- the proposal we got from the president. If we gave the president $1.6 trillion of new money, what do you think he'd do with it? He's going to spend it. It's what Washington does. ... They'll spend it."
Boehner: Raising Tax Rates Will Hurt Small Businesses and Destroy Jobs:
"Now, listen, I believe that raising tax rates hurts our economy, hurts the prospects for more jobs in our country. And I realize that the president may disagree. But the fact is, is that if there's another way to get revenue, uh, from upper income Americans, that doesn't hurt our economy, then why wouldn't we consider it?"
Boehner: Spending Cuts & Reforms Must Exceed Any Increase in the Debt Limit:
"Forever. Silliness. Congress is never going to give up this power. I've made it clear to the president that every time we get to the debt limit, we need cuts and reforms that are greater than the increase in the debt limit. It's the only way to leverage the political process to produce more change than what it would if left alone.
Boehner: Going Over the Fiscal Cliff Will Hurt Our Economy, Is Not Fair to the American People:
"[T]his isn't an issue about Democrats and Republicans. My goodness, this is about our country. And we get -- ought to get serious about dealing with the problems at the end of the year. And we need to get serious about our deficit and our debt, uh, that are burying our children's future. ... [G]oing over the cliff will hurt our economy, will hurt job creation in our country. It's not fair to the American people. ... This agreement should come sooner rather than later, because just the threat of the fiscal cliff is already hurting our economy."
Where are Democrats' Spending Cuts?
Posted by Press Office on November 29, 2012
As today's news shows, it's not Republicans who are standing in the way of the balanced solution President Obama wants for the fiscal cliff – his own party won't get serious about cutting spending:
Republicans have already met President Obama's call for a balanced approach: the GOP offered to accept revenue via tax reform, and the House has passed two budgets outlining real spending cuts and reforms. Republicans also passed legislation stopping all of the tax hikes on middle class families and small businesses, and voted to replace the defense sequester with common-sense cuts.
So the key question remains: what cuts are Democrats willing to make to avert the fiscal cliff?
Still Waiting for Answers on Benghazi
Posted by Press Office on November 09, 2012
On October 25, Speaker John Boehner sent a letter to President Obama asking him to answer several key questions and concerns about his administration's response to the terrorist attack in Libya.
The president still hasn't responded.
"Americans remain concerned and frustrated about how your Administration has handled the response to the attack," wrote Boehner. For example, "The American public is increasingly reading information contradicting early accounts by your Administration of the causes of the events of the day."
The administration itself has been a source for much of the confusion. USA Today highlights aCBS News interview from September 12 where President Obama "said it was 'too early to tell' whether the attack on the U.S. consulate in Libya was an act of terrorism." Weeks later, the president claimed he had labeled it a "terrorist attack" the day after it occurred. The American people deserve an explanation.
Speaker Boehner also asked whether Ambassador Stevens ever made "any direct observations or [raised] any concerns" to the president or his staff "about the security situation" Libya. Fox Newsreports that "[t]he president did not give a yes-or-no answer" when "asked pointedly whether the Americans under attack in Benghazi, Libya, were denied requests for help during the attack." Again, the American people deserve an explanation.

Obama Admin Must Answer for Delphi Pension Scandal
Posted by Press Office on October 24, 2012
In southwest Ohio yesterday, President Obama once again failed to explain his administration's role in slashing pensions for thousands of non-union auto workers in the Buckeye State and across the country.
President Obama often claims his taxpayer-funded bailout helped "save the U.S. auto industry." But "in a growing scandal," Liz Peek at the Fiscal Times says, "Obama's former auto czar and two Treasury officials appear implicated in the decision to eliminate the pensions of 20,000 non-union workers at GM's Delphi unit, while protecting benefits for UAW members."
An op-ed by two economists in the Wall Street Journal notes that government-owned GM gave "gave $1 billion of bailout funds" to "the pensions of Delphi's UAW retirees." But "Delphi's nonunion retirees and retirees in other unions did not fare so well. GM gave them nothing." While the president's union allies got a sweetheart deal, non-union workers at Delphi saw their pensions cut by as much as 70 percent.
Delphi retirees, their families, and taxpayers deserve to know why – and they deserve to know what role the Obama administration played in the process.
In 2010, then-Republican Leader John Boehner and Senator Roger Wicker (R-MS) asked the non-partisan Government Accountability Office (GAO) to investigate the Delphi pension scandal. The GAO agreed and issued its first report in early 2011. Speaker Boehner said the GAO report made it "more evident than ever that there was preferential treatment given to the unions at the expense of Delphi retirees."
House Ways & Means Committee Chairman Dave Camp (R-MI) is demanding that the Obama administration release all documents about its involvement. But so far, the White House is stonewalling.
According to the Washington Free Beacon, "a Daily Caller FOIA request suggests that the Treasury Department and White House may have played a decisive role" in "the decision to wipe out the non-union pensions." And one the president's chief strategists "seemed to admit that President Barack Obama played a role in the lopsided deal."
"It is time the Administration comes clean about the role it played in the slashing of the pensions of 20,000 Delphi employees," says Chairman Camp. And if the White House fails to cooperate, "they may well find themselves on the receiving end of a subpoena…"
The Delphi pension scandal underscores the danger of government officials picking winners and losers in the private sector. And it highlights the importance of the nearly 40 House-passed jobs bills that are focused on helping create new jobs by removing government obstacles (like the president's small business tax hike and health care law) that make it harder for small businesses to hire new workers.
The president needs to level with the workers in Ohio, Michigan, and elsewhere whose pensions were decimated while his union allies were made whole. And his administration needs to provide Congress with detailed answers about its involvement in this scandal at once.
Boehner: Democrats' "Thelma & Louise" Tax Hike Threatens Jobs, Families
Posted by Press Office on October 16, 2012
In a weekly column released in his Congressional District, Congressman John Boehner says the president's "fiscal cliff" tax hikes pose a real threat to middle class families and small businesses – and the Democrats who are willing to drive us over the cliff in their quest to enact those tax hikes are practicing "'Thelma and Louise' economics."
The House passed a bipartisan bill to avoid the "fiscal cliff" by stopping all of the president's tax hikes, and voted to begin fixing the tax code to help grow our economy and bring jobs home from overseas. Republicans are working to "fight the debt through economic growth," says Boehner – "and we won't have economic growth if we raise taxes on small businesses." Here's an excerpt from his column:
"Driving off the fiscal cliff would have disastrous effects for our country. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) says it would send the struggling U.S. economy into recession. And credit agencies such as Moody's indicate another downgrade of the nation's credit status is likely if an agreement isn't reached to steer clear.
"The stance being taken by these Democratic senators is rooted in the flawed belief that our country can spend, tax, and borrow its way out of debt.
"The problem, as the Ernst & Young report illustrates, is that raising taxes on small businesses will destroy jobs and inhibit growth. The only way we can fix the deficit and address the debt is to get the economy moving again, and keep it moving. That requires reform of both the tax code and the way the federal government spends taxpayers' money. Instead of raising tax rates on small businesses, we need an overhaul of the tax code that supports growth by closing loopholes and lowering taxes instead of raising them."
To paraphrase the Wall Street Journal, Thelma & Louise may be a great movie – but it's terrible economic policy. Read Boehner's full column here.

The third missionary journey displays Paul at the height of his apostolic powers, fulfilling his calling as a guarantor of the church's gospel and its mission. Through Paul God proclaims a powerful gospel and performs extraordinary miracles, the signs of an apostle. Paul embraces an equally significant apostolic mark: suffering. How shall we apply to ourselves the encouragement and challenge of the example of the divinely empowered, yet obediently suffering, apostle?

Alabama Gas Company recently upgraded the gas lines in parts of Anniston. The project required them to dig up and replace a few sidewalk squares. A few neighbors noticed and wrote their initials in the wet concrete. In the past, when I have seen initials written in people's patios and porches, I have often wondered when they wrote them, and I sometimes think wonder how that person or persons might have felt at that moment.
Later in the week, as I attended a graduation ceremony at Trinity Christian Academy, I thought of how the simple act of making a mark in concrete is similar to the ways starry-eyed teen-agers are focused on making their mark.
I was especially proud of one of the three graduates who spoke at TCA, as she was my student this past year. I watched her mature in the previous nine months. On the night of the ceremony, I was proud of how good her speech was and how well she delivered it.
Even more important than her speech, and the ones the other two graduates delivered, was that all three seemed to understand the need to be people of excellence. Such a desire is the best way to leave a mark on life that is infinitely more important than scratching in concrete. Carrying out a desire to achieve excellence is hard.
Teen-agers struggle with many issues, such as working to improve grades, learning from the corrections teachers make, and engaging with the other teen-agers who have their own issues. In the process of these push-pull relationships, most students come to realize that their teachers are not their enemies and that achievement takes place when things are done neatly, well, and in a timely fashion. Most teachers learn that students are more accepting of correction when dealt with individually and lovingly.
Graduation is a time when we teachers and parents can admire our handiwork. Also, it is a time when we try to envision the marks these young people will likely make on the places where they will work and where they will attend college. Also, they will likely make a mark by creating a family in the future. We adults wish them happiness in all that they do.
Friends and I made an interesting discovery last week that helped us remember the marks that people from history have made. We were walking in East Anniston after the recent rains and enjoying the sounds made by the waters rushing through the open drainage ditches. These structures traverse the streets and keep us safe from flooding. We noticed a plaque attached to one of the safety walls built over one such ditch. "U.S.A. 1936-1937 WPA," it read.
It just so happened that my students and I had recently studied the Works Progress Administration program (WPA) that was part of President Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal, his way of providing people with jobs and stimulating the economy during The Great Depression.
As my fellow walkers and I stood and watched the water, we observed how sturdy and effective the drainage ditches were. The men who built them labored hard to provide for their families and to build something of lasting value for the people of the future, people like my friends and me.
I, like most other teachers, hope that our students will one day look back on their school days and appreciate the hard work and the positive marks we made on their lives.
Helping students build a character of lasting value is one of the best ways to provide structure in their communities and to prevent problems from flooding their world.

When Electronic Arts bought social games maker Playfish for $300 million—plus a $100 million buyout—in 2009, it sent shock waves throughout the videogame industry. Spurred by growing speculation about the value of then-private Zynga, some tech pros say it was the beginning of a bubble for developers who specialize in Facebook games.
On Monday, EA once again surprised the tech world – this time by announcing plans to axe several games on the social network, including The Sims Social, SimCity Social and Pet Society. When those titles shut down on June 14, Playfish may not have any active games—thus raising questions about its fate. (EA declined to discuss the future of Playfish, saying it was "not commenting on individual teams.")
The Sims Social was once one of the most popular games on Facebook, with daily active users topping 10 million. It has fallen off of those highs, though, in a big way: Today, the game boasts just 500,000 daily players, according to App Data – and may soon fall out of the Top 100 Facebook titles; it's currently ranked 98th.
(Read More: EA Puts Faith in 'Next Gen Consoles')
EA is just the latest videogame maker to distance itself from social network (though games from its PopCap division will continue to be playable there). Zynga, once the king of Facebook games has been steadily shifting its focus to mobile games and real world gambling to increase revenues.
(Read More: Gaming Industry's Latest Idea: Free Games)
While Facebook officials have recently begun talking up games as part of the company's strategy, analysts note the site has failed to find a way to handle notifications without them appearing spam-like, causing players to lose some interest and developers to move elsewhere. A Facebook spokesman has disputed this, recently telling Gamasutra game installs are up 75 percent compared to a year ago.
While EA won't confirm the shutdown, Playfish staffers seemed to hint at the situation on the Playfish forums. The developer encouraged players to use their Playfish cash cards—gift cards bought at retail stores that can be used to purchase in-game items in any of the developer's titles—before The Sims Social sunsets. "After that date, you will need to contact customer service regarding your Playfish cash cards," the developer said—indicating no future games were forthcoming.
The apparent end of Playfish games is just the latest in a series of recent misfortunes for EA. In March, CEO John Riccitiello announced his resignation (chairman Larry Probst is filling the position in a temporary basis now). In the weeks leading up to that, the launch of a much anticipated reboot of "SimCity" was marred by online server problems that prevented many players from being able to access the game, which required an Internet connection.
And just last week, EA laid off an undisclosed number of employees as part of a streamlining movement to become more efficient and sharpen its focus. And that action came days after EA was named the "Worst Company in America" by consumer watchdog website The Consumerist for the second year in a row. (In an open letter to gamers last week, EA chief operating officer Peter Moore said the company could do better, but added the label of "worst company" was undeserved.)
Analysts say Playfish appears to have been a bet that just didn't work out for the company. "In the final analysis, Riccitiello probably didn't manage the company's cash well enough," says Michael Pachter of Wedbush Securities. "They made a lot of acquisitions that, in 20/20 hindsight, weren't worth it—including Playfish."
The Playfish acquisition was the spark that led to enormous valuations and takeover prices of social gaming companies. Soon after EA's purchase, Disney laid out $563 million for Playdom—a company which, at the time, had a much smaller reach than Playfish. And in 2011, EA paid $750 million for PopCap Games.
Facebook, though, has become a less important platform for games in recent years as mobile games have shown a significantly stronger growth pattern. Playfish never really made that transition. "The perception was Facebook would grow unabated," says Pachter. "There's still money to be made, but it's hard to stand out. The opportunity for growth is much smaller than people thought."
"There have been a lot of [developers and publishers] pulling out of Facebook," adds Billy Pidgeon, an independent market research analyst. "But I would have like to have heard [EA is] keeping some other aspect of social. Certainly, they can keep it going to some degree with PopCap, but most other people are moving aggressively toward mobile and away from social."
Despite the recent move, Pachter remains bullish about EA's future. He rates the stock an "outperform," and recently raised his target price on the company from $23 to $25 to reflect improving industry outlook ahead of the launch of next generation consoles. "They will have huge earnings growth next year," he says. "They'll be fine."
Others area bit more cautious, noting the company seems to be at a crossroads. "EA faces a number of crucial decision points regarding resource allocation and franchise planning in the hit-driven video game business," said Baird Equity Research's Colin Sebastian in a note to investors. (Sebastian is neutral on EA.)
And Pidgeon notes that the company needs to become more realistic with its projections. "Activision has always done better at maintaining expectations to the point where they were projecting growth for each quarter and they were able to under promised and over-deliver," he says."With EA, it's been the other way around. And that's not the way to keep investors happy."
